This part of ISO 15859 specifies limits for the composition of argon (Ar) and establishes the sampling and test requirements applicable for the verification of the argon (Ar) composition.

This part of ISO 15859 is applicable to argon, used for purging and pressurization of space systems as well as in both flight hardware and ground facilities, systems, and equipment, of the following types.

• Type I: gaseous;

• Type II: liquid.

This part of ISO 15859 is applicable to influents only within the specified limits herein.

This part of ISO 15859 is applicable to any sampling operation required to ensure that, when the fluid enters the launch vehicle or spacecraft, the fluid composition complies with the limits provided hereafter or with any technical specification agreed to for a particular use.
